Gay Weddings And Why They Are A Good Thing



Gay Weddings And Why They Are A Good Thing

For many many years gay and lesbian people have been fighting for these type of rights and have lived in fear and the feeling of being a second citizen. Having to live with this over many years, afraid that something could happen or say they didn't want them here, would of been awful and no way to live your life. Gay weddings have opened doors for full same sex rights in the eyes of the law. We call it a gay wedding but really it's a civil partnership, which isn't full marriage but close enough to it. Gay weddings finally show that people do recognize love between people of the same sex is acceptable and the love is just as strong as a straight couple.
The fact that gay weddings are now allowed is a huge sign if not the final sign that it's all OK to be gay and people accept you for what you are. Of course as like anything there is still a small group of people who don't like it. You will find that not every country is as liberal as others and just by being gay you could be in serious trouble or even put to death. Its a matter of gay rights and having gay weddings in a country is a massive step forward in the right direction if not the final step into gay rights. There is the whole thing about gay adoption but that is for another time.
